Hi folks - thanks for those who worked with our CSS folks to help us find the issue (we think that it's a date handling bug - you can confirm by temporarily setting your regional settings to the US style of ‘MM/DD/yy.’)

We're working on a fix for this - as per usual I can't give you an exact date but it should go out in one of the next couple of monthly updates.

Sorry for the inconvenience here - we are a global company and we have a large number of international tests as well as extensive internal & global dogfood so no idea how we missed this one :-(

You can see the version in the "about word" option. Mine is a mac version, Office 2016 15.15, and it shows recent files. I had that problem with version 15.13.

Hi James - one thought - what account have you used to log onto Office?
